Waiting for the “I’m shocked” pic. :>}
The subpoena and preservation order didn’t mean what they said.
Welcome to America.
They learned from Richard Nixon’s experience. If Nixon had just toughed it out he would have still been president. Unfortunately for Nixon, unlike the Obama administration, Nixon had a conscience.
Back in the day, being a lowly night shift computer operator(IBM 360) we reused tapes by writing over them on a fixed schedule. The only time we degaussed tapes is if we had an inordinate number of errors.
(and then had to ship them to the home office)
Me smells something mighty fishy
EXEMPT McCain began the IRS attacks with the Democrats.
NOTHING will come of this.
Who is the liberal lackey that gets to be made a hero for taking one for the team and making this whole nasty IRS “scandal” go away?
WAY more than Louis Lerner are involved in FELONIES!!!!
The IRS even! Those who demand honesty, integrity of those they serve. Good grief.
When do people start going to jail?
Call me when someone in the IRS is charged, found guilty in a court of law, and is sent to Federal prison.
Defund the IRS.
The term “above the law” does not begin to describe the lawless nature of this regime. There is no law, there are no rules. Our nation was founded by moral men. We now do not have leaders, we have usurpers. The Republican ‘leaders’ are either co-conspirators, or the Clintons and Obamas have their FBI files, and they dare not transgress.
And I am never filing personal tax returns again until those emails are recovered. Time for me to put my foot down and follow Ann Barnhardt. This is corrupt collusion between two corrupt parties. McCain told them which Tea Party groups to go after. Obama told her he would protect her. That is what the emails will tell you.
The shriveled-up old hag never planned to obey the law. She knew the “justice” department would never prosecute her.
She will get a high-paying job as reward for her service.
The country is no better than the Soviet Union. It’s a joke.
STOP MAKING EXCUSES, CONGRESS IS REFUSING TO DO THEIR JOB! They are just a COMPLICIT as every lying pos in the Administration. Because it all leads right back to the Leadership of BOTH PARTIES!
Congress has ALL the power in washington, the executive and judicial branch operate according to the whims of CONGRESS!
Congress can Remove the President
Congress can remove the head of every executive agency Congress can remove ALL of their employees
Congress can Abolish every agency they so choose
Congress can remove EVERY JUDGE IN AMERICA, including every supreme court justice.
Congress can abolish every federal court except the supreme Court
Congress can decide which cases the Judicial Branch can hear and decide
CONGRESS can Imprison ANYONE they want for any reason they so desire for as long as they wish.
Congress can declare WAR
No other governing body has even 10% of the power CONGRESS has!!
CONGRESS IS ALLOWING ALL OF IT!!!
Congress has the authority to arrest and imprison those found in Contempt. The power extends throughout the United States and is an inherent power (does not depend upon legislated act)
If found in Contempt the person can be arrested under a warrant of the Speaker of the House of Representatives or President of the Senate, by the respective Sergeant at Arms.
Statutory criminal contempt is an alternative to inherent contempt.
Under the inherent contempt power Congress may imprison a person for a specific period of time or an indefinite period of time, except a person imprisoned by the House of Representatives may not be imprisoned beyond adjournment of a session of Congress.
Imprisonment may be coercive or punitive.

Daily examples of our scofflaw federal government.
Conspiracy to destroy government evidence, actual destruction of federal evidence, obstruction of justice, tampering with evidence, aren’t these criminal actions? But since its a federal beef, it will have to go to the Department of Injustice, and I wouldn’t want to place any bets that Lynch will do anything about it.
There is no penalty. No one goes to jail. No penalty = no foul. It is just neat politics.
I have highlighted the operable word. Probably the only truthful thing these bums have said in this whole mess, and that was probably a parapraxis.
